It feels uncomfortable constantly hearing people justify your value based on your relation to men. I know it doesn't specify men, but let's be honest, that's what everyone thinks of. If you have good intentions, that's good, but that doesn't stop the implication that women are only valuable as they relate to men. Intentions do not factor into someone's frustration hearing it for the millionth damn time! Until that phrase gets reclaimed, it's gonna have that patriarchal association to most people.
